VY’s property tallied up by Harris County constables as $1.7M judgment enforced

Harris County constables greeted former University of Texas quarterback Vince Young as they enforced a $1.7 million judgment against the former Heisman Trophy runner-up.

Houston television station KHOU reported that three Precinct 5 Harris County constables took an inventory of Young’s possessions — artwork, jewelry, furniture and others — to figure out how much he owns.

Young was allowed to keep $60,000 in personal property as exemptions, but the rest could go on sale at a public auction to satisfy that court judgment.

The $1.7 million was from a high-risk loan Young took out during the 2011 NFL lockout from the New-York firm Pro Player Funding.

Young defaulted on the loan, Pro-Player took him to court, and obtained a judgment in July 2012. Since then, he’s battled to save his propery.

It’s a sad tale involving one of the Longhorns’ greatest players ever. And it reads as a cautionary tale for all athletes who need a reminder in carefully minding their financial affairs.
